Association of dietary ω-6:ω-3 PUFA ratio (independent variable) with adiposity and biochemical variables in the study population (n = 170)

Model*	Dependent variable	R2, %	B (95% CI)	p value
Model 1	WC, cm	86.6	0.228 (0.041–0.415)	0.017
Model 2	Insulin, µU/ml	37.9	0.276 (0.037–0.514)	0.024
Model 3	HOMA-IR	23.4	0.100 (0.040–0.161)	0.001

WC = Waist circumference; HOMA-IR = homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance.

^*All models were adjusted by age, sex, weight and energy intake.
